THE PRINCESS ANDREA"
Janish = egins Her second Engage
ment in Savannah.

- -
ment in Savannah.
Nine. Antonio Janish, the Countess
Arco, began her second engagement at
the Savannah Theatre last night. Her
play was the "Prlncess Andrea" one of
Sardou's standard dramas, in which she
has been seen here before. The audience
was a good sized one, and was apprecia-
tive. The material for the plot Is woven
around characters presumed TO be of the
leading society at the French capital.
Nine. Jsnish has very striking face,
which becomes the more interesting the
longer seen. Her voice is remarkably
sympathetic, and her acting approaches
TO artistic perfection. The first act OF the
play is not one of absorbing interest, nor
is the second, but each succeeding act
grows in interest, it might be SAID, in
a sort OF geometrical proportion. So
with the star. who when she first appears
is a wife with but the slightest germ of
jealousy. Rapidly, however, that germ
develops, and the young wife discovers
that her husband is about N desert her.
1t is then in her passages with the
project Of police and later with
the prince" that she DISPLAYS
dramatic power which cannot but
strongly impress her audience. What a
spell her sex can exert is shown in the
fourth act, in which she pleads with her
husband, from whom she carefully con-
ceals her own knowledge Of his inteu-
lions. Her eyes beamlng with a touch
ing expression, her voice unsteady elO-
quent and her ripe, perfect figure are
charms which are irresistible 10 the
madly infatuated Maurice" so long as
he is within her presence.
The audience which at the beginning
was cold became thoroughly aroused as
she brought into play faculty after fac
ultv TO influence her husband and win
back his warped affections.
Not violent gesture or harsh utter
ance marred her elocution and the climax
WAS followed by enthusiastic applause.
The supporting company Is quite good .
"StellO." the dancer. the Baroness and
"Nidonie" were certainly pretty and did
their parts very well. Mr.. Cooper and
Mr.. Moore, as tue minister of Police"
and Frederic" respectively. were not
quite so good as others who have filed the
same parts, butthey gave a fair perform
ance. Mr.. LellingwelPs Prince" was
Credltable.
At the matinee to-day "Niolets' VIII be
given. the programme having been
changed, and the princess Andrea" will
be repeated tonight instead Of LEO

John A. Long Signs Another Longs
Name and Gets S17 80.
John A. Long was the defendant IN the
United States District Court yesterday in
a case IN which ne was charged with hav-
ing traudulently obtained money on a
post Office order.
Among the delegates to the River and
Harbor Convention which was held in
Savannah In November, 1880, was Mayor
J. q. Long, of st. Augustine, Fla. While
he was here letter was mailed to him by
an old woman OF his city, who requested
MIN to visit her daughter, who was in Jail
here. The writer enclosed Il money order
for SIT 80.
JOnn A. Long, or one Of his family, re
ceived the letter and it was opened and
read to him by a neighbOr. Three weeks
later he presented the order at tue post
Office and collected the money on 1t. The
order bears the defendants signature,
but over the middle letter A. is a g.
The registry clerk testified that Long
signed the q. The defendant denied it,
saying that he merely signed MS own
name. lie admitted receiving the cash,
however, but claimed that he thought
1t was intended for him.
Ii was stated that when Mrs. Long heard
the letter read she became jealous, as
she thought that the st. Augustine woman
was corresponding with her husband.
All of the evidence was heard, and the
case was argued. The jury will Oe charged
this morning by Judge Speer.
The postal inspectors traced the letter
into the defendants possession last April,
and he refunded the money, when was
paid over to the party who wrote the let
